Shines a brilliant, sharp, comic yet kind spotlight on a profound topic. Must see. ... full review

If you’re looking for a satisfying alternative to typical fancy and glossy theater productions, please consider checking out “Bleeding Bears” now showing at the Hudson Theater in Hollywood. It is a must-see for theater lovers to opt for the Hollywood Fringe experience on quite literally a bare bones stage with a minimal number of props. ... full review

An original, perceptive, haunted, sensitive, lovely take on the legendary Anna Nicole Smith, with a surprise appearance by an even bigger Bombshell. I left the theater illuminated and inspired. ... full review

HILARIOUS! what a queen! Go see this show! ... full review

A mix of light puzzling, props work, engaging with performers, completing tasks with other audience members, and moving through a series of immersive spaces. ... full review

Incredible show! I’ve already seen it twice and want to see it a third time. Jalen is awesome. ... full review

Just outstanding. One of the best Fringe shows I’ve ever seen. Beautifully paced, funny, poignant, absolutely “of today” without being in your face. Well done!... full review

A great blending of past, present and future in an honest reflection of the historical cycle tragically repeating itself.... full review

What’s criminal about CELL: A Duologue, is that it doesn’t come with a pint of ice cream for after it destroys you. It’s so good that I’m mad about it. Get your tix now; this sleeper is gonna blow up! Best of HFF26! ... full review

Stupendous cast. Loved the high energy.... full review

This is a MUST SEE Fringe Show for 2026! I laughed, I cried and I certainly wasn't the only one. Rather Profound. Hits your heart! Bizarre! I loved it! A Clown Show yet filled with Truth and Honesty of Motherhood & the juggle of your own life before being a Mom. I am not a Mom, only to dogs, yet you don't have to be a parent to love BEBE BEBE! Also, Motherhood and every one of us has had a Mom, and that insight as simple as it is was told to us in a new fresh way! ... full review

Genuinely such a cool mix of passions on display, from the prop designs to the parodies themselves, this just feels like a show Weird Al himself would've done! Shelby and Ryan have truly outdone themselves, and it's genuinely impressive what they're able to keep up for 45 straight minutes of high octane action (a review that's usually reserved for action movies but trust me, it fits).... full review

I did not expect to laugh as much as I did at a play set in a crisis call center. Pamela Eberhardt is a master at finding the humanity and humor in dark situations, so I should not have been surprised. Teaming up this time with Dan Testa to write and direct, Pamela has delivered another unforgettable show in a great collaboration. The cast is strong, particularly Emily Clark who inhabits her character with such detail and delicate precision. Go see this show. Can't recommend it highly enough.... full review

Funny, honest, tender show that is all too relatable. Great physical comedy! Christine really shines bringing the painful truth to light with fun clown work. ... full review

MIKE IS A TALL GLASS OF FUNNY WATER........ full review

A true treat at Fringe! Rapid-fire, witty, with very strong improv at its core. Very connective with the community and the artists. Sweet and silly and completely enjoyable!... full review

Taya Beattie is a masterful improviser. Her characters are distinct, outrageous, engaging, and utterly hilarious. Make Me clips along with tightly controlled chaos that bubbles to the top and leaves you wanting more. Get this woman on SNL already!!! Favorite Moment: Taya starting off a scene by screaming and running back and forth into the side walls 4 times while wearing a sparkly cape.... full review

This play embodies the idea that "the truth is never a given, it is only revealed" — both, thematically and in its structure — and what a beautiful thing it is to witness. You're drawn in to the world before the play even begins as you pick up the program and get seated. The script is gorgeous and the acting is spot on. The direction ensured that each did the other justice! This play had me teary-eyed and has my full heart. ... full review

A really compelling story about finding the courage to be loud in the face of oppression. Miley Yamamoto and the rest of the cast are beautifully vulnerable and stirring. ... full review
